My next post in support of Ukraine is:

Next site, the city of Boryslav (Борислав) in Lviv Oblast. The city was first mentioned in writings back in 1387, but there have been people living in the area since the Bronze Age. There's remains of a pagan shrine from the 1st millennium BC nearby with around 270 petroglyphs that have solar symbols on them of a pre-Christian solar deity. During Kyivan Rus times, there was a fortress called Tustan on the site of the modern city. The city later became part of different kingdoms, first the Kingdom of Poland, then Austria. After WWI, it became part of the West Ukrainian People's Republic, but then after the Polish-Ukrainian War, it again became part of Poland. It was annexed by the soviet union in 1939 under the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Then, in 1941, it was occupied by the Nazis. After WWII, it again became part of the soviet union. The area actually produces oil and a substance known as ozokerite. It's a type of natural mineral wax or paraffin and is used in things like electrical insulators and candles. (Дякую, Wikipedia. I've never heard of that substance before.)

Усім нам чомусь важко жити спокійно - постійно хочеться сплеску емоцій та адреналіну. Саме тому люди записуються на екстремальні види спорту. Ви замислювалися про те, який вид спорту небезпечніший? Ні? Тепер, будете знати. Найнебезпечнішим видом спорту прийнято вважати "Бейсджампінг". Що це таке? Це стрибки з парашутом з дуже низькою висоти. Перша небезпека, яка чекає спортсменів - це дестабілізація тіла, яка переходить у неконтрольоване обертання. Звідси виникає наступна загроза - парашут може не розкритися, а також, при обертанні легко заплутатися в стропах. Тут, звичайно, усі повинні розуміти, що шансу все виправити, ні у кого не буде! #strom #stromwear #sportwear #fitness #fitnessblog #motivation #followme #like4like #lifestyle #sport #extreme #jump #parashute #bacejumping #dangerous #boryslav #gluhiv #obuhiv #tokmak (at Zaliznyy Port, Khersons'Ka Oblast', Ukraine)
